Choosing the Right Wheelchair Transfer Board

Selecting the correct transfer board depends on the user’s mobility needs, transfer technique and the environments where it will be used. Factors such as board length, weight capacity, material and surface design should all be considered to ensure safe and comfortable use.

Important features to consider include:

• Maximum user weight capacity
• Board length and width
• Material and overall weight
• Grip handles or cut-out sections for easier handling
